Compared with many others this was value for money. Expedia transferred me after staying one night in an extremely bad hotel and in comparison this was bliss. Stayed 3 nights and it could easily been more. Some of the nearby properties were not well maintained but no issue here. As I had provisions I did not have breakfast but that also sounded good value. Comfortable bed and room all round , not 5 star but neither was the price. Shower took a while to heat up and was not manoeuvrable in its use but plenty of hot water. Just off the south shore amenities and a bus stop a minute inland as well as on the seafront. The reception desk is not always manned but there is normally someone about especially if you are expected. No hesitation in staying again, ignore old reviews.

We had a great 2 night stay, the main areas are a bit dated but the room was spotless with a TV and tea/coffee facilities. The staff went above and beyond, delicious full english for breakfast with cereal and toast available, as well as hot drinks and juice. The end of the street leads to the sea and really central location for the attractions. Would recommend :)

Room Was OK considering what we paid

Dated and could do with a freshen up however for the price you can’t expect the Ritz.
Poorly stocked bar.

Room was small even though we had booked for a double room with king size bed. There was bad smell of smoke from cigarettes from late night to early morning and a lot of loud noises from the other rooms slamming door & music playing late night.
